Loads of rumours about frimpong doing the rounds.
{Ed001's Note - only because of the video of him greeting Virgil and Gravy with an attempt at Scouse. And the fact it is said he is a Liverpool fan is probably adding to the rumours.}
1.) 19 Mar 2025 04:52:14
I think he would certainly add athleticism and drive to our side whether playing right back or right wing, it's clear we need more explosiveness in the side, even if he doesn't seem like the kind of full back slot prefers tactically.
2.) 19 Mar 2025 07:04:01
Yeah, we’re not spending £40m on a right back. He’ll end up at City.
3.) 19 Mar 2025 08:02:31
Trent stays, Fringpong as a Salah replacement?
4.) 19 Mar 2025 09:25:03
Love your work @Victor.
5.) 19 Mar 2025 10:01:30
Well WDW, if anyone seriously thinks we are spending big money on a right back, they’re absolutely delusional. Same as thinking we’d go and spend big on Isak, Alvarez or whoever. Bradley gets promoted to first choice with Quansah and Gomez covering. The other thing is if folks think Arnold is poor defensively, he has nothing on Frimpong. Frimpong makes Arnold look like peak Claudio Gentile by comparison.
6.) 19 Mar 2025 10:05:40
How much do you think we're willing to spend on a right back, Viktor? £40 spread out over five installments with a few Tesco coupons for wages?
7.) 19 Mar 2025 10:51:34
I actually agree with Viktor. I could imagine a Tsimikas style signing and Bradley given the chance to make the spot his. It's basically impossible to replace Trent like for like. Who knows though.
8.) 19 Mar 2025 12:32:50
I’d think Hughes is saving the Tescos club card for more hair product, that Lego hairstyle won’t maintain itself, Patrick.
9.) 19 Mar 2025 17:32:30
Haven't seen said video ed, also I am hearing a lot of Isak rumours too. I think we'll be spending big this summer.
10.) 19 Mar 2025 18:37:38
Think 40m for an established rb is a bargain myself Victor and the 40 to 50m is well within our spending budget for a single player. We spunked 30m on a goalkeeper who's still on loan. Why wouldn't we spend 40m on frimpong. Now the 150m for isak we definitely need to forget about.
11.) 19 Mar 2025 19:50:25
If we played a back three he would be great but we don't. If people think trent leaves konate exposed they'd get a shock if we played him right back. Konate would be covering more ground than dom!
10 Jan 2025 12:30:56
Hi Ed001, I highly appreciate the effort you put into this site and I'd imagine your work load has vastly increased since the unfortunate passing of Ed002. I do have a question though if you don't mind please? Lots of rumours that Doak and Elliot could well be off very soon, I don't agree with that one bit and think we should be keeping highly promising young home grown players like them. Do you think there is a chance they will be sold and if so why? Thank you.
{Ed001's Note - there is a very good chance because both would make a significant accounting profit to enable the club to finance signings and neither are seen as reaching the level required.}
1.) 10 Jan 2025 12:56:39
Even Elliot Ed001 mate? I understand the injuries, but really a shame for him if he’s not able to show what he can do under slot. What do you think is lacking from Slot and his coaches’ point of view mate?
Interesting though, love the lad and can see his passion for the club.
{Ed001's Note - I think the injury just came at a bad time for him. Personally I would sack off Mac Allister before him, but it is not my decision and Elliott is better from an accounting point of view.}
2.) 10 Jan 2025 13:06:42
I get that Ed, but even though I rate Elliot above Jones I would imagine that Jones would cost more to buy? Seems a shame, I really like Elliot as a player, he always looks and drives forward when he has the ball. Do you know if there is anyone in particular we are looking to buy if we get money for Elliot or Doak or is just a case of balancing the books? Thank you.
{Ed001's Note - I don't know who we are looking to, but it does seem to be a case of raising cash to buy players, rather than balancing the books. I would have assumed a midfielder anyway, but if Elliott is going that need increases. But we still face the prospect of having to replace 3 key players as well.}
3.) 10 Jan 2025 13:25:42
This has the same ring to it as Chelsea and Newcastle where they are selling their best youngsters to bank roll the 1st team. an unforseen effect of PSR.
4.) 10 Jan 2025 13:26:35
I think Elliott is really technically gifted but he lacks the strength to be in the centre and the speed to be on the wing. I would sell Jones before Elliott who is still too hot and cold and is prone to muscle injuries but it's not my decision either.
5.) 10 Jan 2025 13:47:48
I would sell all three and get some money to invest in the squad now that it’s clear we don’t have cash available. All those years of dominance on the pitch and CL and we are down to bare bones.
6.) 10 Jan 2025 13:57:24
It would be a tragedy to let Elliott go. His work rate is superb as is his mentality, you see how much it means to him playing for us every time he takes to the pitch. I very much hope it’s not true, I like him so much I bought an Elliott kit right after preseason.
7.) 10 Jan 2025 14:18:08
FSG_PR, we’re cobbling enough pennies together for the summer window after next for that big all out assault to sign Snoogie Doogie and Bozo Texino.
8.) 10 Jan 2025 14:27:55
It doesn't surprise me that Elliott could be sold. The last two games have shown us how much with Szobo's energy/ legs. What chance does Harvey have here?
If Brighton are interested in Elliott then there's a couple of players they have that we like the look of.
Really happy that Doak is making the most of his loan and attracting attention. Hope he gets a move where he can build on that rather than sit on the bench.
9.) 10 Jan 2025 14:37:07
I'd imagine Elliott, Doak and Morton are all for sale at the right price. They are all great sales for the accounting side of PSR and none of them are contributing to the first team right now so it's not like we would even be desperate to replace them. McConnell and Nyoni arguably step into the place of Elliott and Morton as 6th and 7th choice midfielders. Doak isn't even in the squad to need replacing. Yet their sales probably fetch close to £80m, which is nearly all profit within the PSR guidelines.
Be interesting to see what goes down but ultimately, a huge mistake Klopp and Edwards repeatedly made was to hold on to players too long and eventually their values fell until they left for peanuts or ran down their contracts. Edwards and Slot have to get that side of things right. City have actually done it to great effect in recent years. Yes, it bit them in the backside with Cole Palmer but it also did them a huge favour with Gabriel Jesus, Ferran Torres, Olek Zinchenko, Raheem Sterling etc. who all fell apart as footballers after their sales but still raked in over £100m.
10.) 10 Jan 2025 14:40:16
The mad thing is that United are now open to selling mainoo because of the pure profit thing too, and he’s pretty much their best player and future. Bizarre how these psr regulations have created such a strange consequence.
11.) 10 Jan 2025 13:08:32
Mac Allister? Really Ed? I think he’s class!
12.) 10 Jan 2025 14:48:04
Elliott’s a lovely guy and his attitude is spot on . Nice skill levels as well, but hasn’t got the physical attributes to play for us as a week in week out starter. That’s why he’s surplus, and the profit angle helps us right now as we need to buy desperately.
Ben Doaks got the physical side, but not the decision making at the moment, not at elite level anyway. Again that's why if we can turn a surplus we’ve got to let him go unfortunately.
If we want to be elite, and be able to keep investing in new players and pay others crazy salaries to keep them, we have to make these harsh calls. The club probably ideally want to keep them, but equally would prefer not to pay Trent and others £250k plus a week. Not sure how else they can balance the books.
13.) 10 Jan 2025 15:08:46
Rather we sold Jones than elliot.
14.) 10 Jan 2025 15:30:58
I imagine we have to raise funds to be safe on the FFP front as it looks like our losses are big from last season with no Champs’ league plus signing 4 midfielders.
Which leaves me so confused about how Arsenal and Man U have been able to spend so much.
Martin Samuel at The Times does drone on an awful lot about the unfairness of FFP as he feels it makes it impossible for ambitious clubs to compete with the big 6. He does have a point, but I do like the idea of clubs being self-sufficient.
15.) 10 Jan 2025 16:18:47
I ultimately wouldn’t mind if we sold Curtis but probably one to revisit in the summer. I think he’s a step up on Harvey given the system we play, so don’t mind keeping him as a rotation option, and he’s also got a good attitude and work ethic.
As we’re looking to bring one more in in the central positions that will push him further down the pecking order, so he may start to look elsewhere anyway.
16.) 10 Jan 2025 16:33:05
Thank you Ed, sorry for bugging you with another question but if it was up to you, which players would you move on in order to make money?
{Ed001's Note - Mac Allister, Jota, Quansah, possibly Nunez.}
17.) 10 Jan 2025 16:48:07
I think it would be a massive mistake to sell Harvey myself. The lad always gives 200% is a mad liverpool fan (that matters to me) and will run through brick walls for the team and we need players like that. He’s obviously a bag of tricks as well and has a wicked shot on him.
I really hope we don’t sell in Jan and give him some time to bed into this new set up under Slot as he’s not really had the chance as of yet.
18.) 10 Jan 2025 17:01:21
I think Doak could play a role as Salah’s understudy he’d have offered us more than Chiesa has.
19.) 10 Jan 2025 17:29:16
Well if we need to sell elliot and doak who haven't even been chances this season but keep players like Jones and buying keepers for 30m who aren't even that good then sorry but i might just call this club a day. If that's how bad we are ran as a club then the future is far from bright. I'd sooner elliot plays than injury prone jota, nunez and Jones all day long.
20.) 10 Jan 2025 17:48:09
I agree with the poster who mentioned Jones before Elliot as he blows too hot and cold for me for a player reaching his mid-twenties.
Ed001, would Jones make your list of players to release for profit? I'd imagine he'd carve out a great career at a mid-table club.
{Ed001's Note - I would prefer to sell neither, but if it is necessary I would consider Jones as well, yes. And Morton.}
21.) 10 Jan 2025 19:02:52
Curtis probably suit Fulham, not sure how good Morton is yet and whether his value is peak level or whether a final loan may help him. Curtis will probably decline value wise, so a decision will need to be taken soon. He was linked with Arsenal last season, whether true or not I still think he’s a top ten in the Prem level player. Ironically if he didn’t play for us we’d probably like him more.
I like Mac in a more advanced role and would keep until summer at least, still like to see Darwin given a run until end of season, but if no improvement let him go then.
22.) 10 Jan 2025 22:17:01
If Jones wasn't a local lad he'd be gone . He's not getting any better and isn't likely to at this stage either. Cash in on him now and get a decent fee for him. No point in sentiment getting in the way of business.
23.) 11 Jan 2025 07:49:45
Curtis has two bad games and folks pile on him saying he’s only in the team because he’s a scouser, does anybody appreciate him on here?
02 Nov 2024 19:09:49
Hi Ed002. As far as you are aware do we have any interest in Mbeumo?
{Ed002's Note - Bryan Mbuemo (RW/F) Seen as a potential upgrade to Miguel Almiron by Newcastle and as an option for both Arsenal and Aston Villa. I am not aware of any approach by Liverpool and having read the article in Equip, they are not saying Liverpool are interested.}
08 Aug 2024 18:55:38
I'm not really one for rumours, but according to my bookie pal ( their usually right ) Liverpool are preparing bids for Zubimendi and Soler, they apparently really want Gordon too but will only bid once they've freed up space and have the funds.
1.) 08 Aug 2024 19:18:58
I can’t see them bidding for two midfielders especially when soler is 27 unless he is very cheap.
2.) 08 Aug 2024 19:32:10
Julio Soler is 19 and a left back.
3.) 08 Aug 2024 21:01:31
Sorry Thought it was Carlos Soler.
4.) 08 Aug 2024 21:27:37
Didnt the bookies have us favourites for Bellingham.
5.) 08 Aug 2024 22:02:38
We were JK until we wouldn’t pay the wages. Short sighted IMO because you can cash in later if needed. However you can sort of understand it when it would have broken the wage structure.
Zubimendi seems a top talent as well, really hope it gets done.
6.) 09 Aug 2024 01:56:41
Bellingham wanted to go to Real Madrid, end of story.
7.) 09 Aug 2024 03:49:36
The bookies are interested in making money not getting transfer rumours correct.
8.) 09 Aug 2024 05:37:55
Wdw the narrative last season was Bellingham wanted to come to Liverpool. Lifelong fan I think it was said.
9.) 09 Aug 2024 06:00:40
Won’t be Zub. Doubt the lb until Jan. imo.
10.) 09 Aug 2024 07:03:32
Or maybe Bellingham didn't come to us last summer was because we had such a poor season, that we looked club on a downer. The time to go for these top players is when the team is on top themselves.
I. e after getting 90 odd points in league r playing in champ league final.
11.) 09 Aug 2024 08:26:43
WDW is correct, Bellingham wanted Madrid.
It's funny how some will ignore the facts and invent their own history so they can pursue a negative narrative towards the club.
Playground behaviour.
12.) 09 Aug 2024 09:35:23
Thrush if you say he is correct then he must be correct. After all any adult who is still a fan of cartoons must be the fountain of knowledge.

As always cheers for your input Thrushthered.
Looking forward to having a beer with you at Anfield this season.
14.) 09 Aug 2024 10:43:41
How does anyone know what happened with Bellingham? You’re just guessing and passing it off as facts.
Obviously, in the end Bellingham wanted Madrid because that’s where he ended up. That’s doesn’t mean that he always wanted Madrid or that he never wanted Liverpool or any other club.
We are talking about human beings who are making decisions on their career. It’s just not as black and white as people seem to think it is and I’m sure that things change quite often.
15.) 09 Aug 2024 10:53:32
How is saying Bellingham was favourite with the bookies guessing?
It was a fact that he was favourite with them to join Liverpool.
16.) 09 Aug 2024 12:19:53
Well BP I'm going by an interview with Bellingham where he said himself he was always going to go to Madrid.
I generally tend to put my faith in something that comes from the horse's mouth rather than clickbait garbage or people's psychic musings on here.
Of course that's only my own perception, people have the right to fabricate their own versions and pass them off as legit. It's not as if it's against the law. It also won't stop me from laughing at it.
17.) 09 Aug 2024 12:38:34
I’m pretty sure ed002 said at one point earlier on in the bid for Bellingham’s signature that he expected Bellingham to end up at either Madrid or Liverpool. I think our chances faded away at some point or other but I distinctly remember we were in the conversation at one point, at least enough of a chance for us to not be considered ‘never in the running’. We did some weird things like make promises to family members and stuff and ultimately we didn’t seem very attractive with the season we had but I’m sure, unless memory fails me, that we were in with a shout.
{Ed002's Note - No, I never said he would move to Liverpool. Liverpool were formally warned about making a direct approach to his family.}
18.) 09 Aug 2024 12:55:15
@JK23, I suspect that I was the lifelong fan that thought Bellingham wanted to come to Liverpool. If that is the case, then, with hindsight, I made a mistake at the time. I’m thinking of starting a club for those of us who make mistakes from time to time.
19.) 09 Aug 2024 13:04:30
People say a lot in interviews, doesn’t mean it’s actually true. He’s just pleasing the fans of his new club ect…. liverpool were in the mix 100% and no doubt the wages were the deciding factor, after watching him for England couldn’t care less…. we got mc and szob, I’ll take them over bell now anyday.
20.) 09 Aug 2024 13:25:52
I distinctly remember that in a post where somebody pressed you to guess where he would end up, you replied Madrid or Liverpool, Ed. I don’t think I would make something like that up (or at least my mind wouldn’t fabricate something so fanciful, I hope), never meant that your meaning was he was going to Liverpool, but that at one point in time it was a possibility rather than a big fat zero.
21.) 09 Aug 2024 13:38:14
WDW you've come to that assumption yourself.
I've not said a lifelong fan or you have said anything.
I've said it was said Bellingham was a lifelong fan and that the bookies had him as favourites to join us.

The hopefully comment is so disrespectful to say about a player who gives everything for us on the pitch and has helped us achieve so much.

Didn’t Robbo hope to play for Celtic after his time at Liverpool was up?
7.) 10 Jul 2024 08:49:05
Who’s going to replace Robbo.
He’s not done yet.
8.) 10 Jul 2024 11:02:10
He’s 30 Ron Keague, therefore “he’s far too old”. He also missed a lot of games last season so he is now in the “made of crisps” bracket. Not to mention that we only finished 3rd which also qualifies him for his “mediocre at best” badge. I also saw him get skinned by Saka this one time at Fan camp, which of course categorises him as an “oil tanker”, which can also be described as someone with “the turning circle of the titanic”. Lastly, his decision to play at the Euros instead of report for pre-season training on time is a clear indication that he has “ a terrible attitude”.
I hope we give him a new contract personally. I think he deserves it for one, but I’d also love to see how certain people on here would react to us contracting a player to 33/ 34 years old. Could be riots.

Ed025 what do you make of trent leaving and probably now the other two? Carragher and big voices outside the club have taken any and all blame away from those in charge of their contracts. There's also extreme naivety on the situation because we're sitting top of the league but those 3 leaving and for free is beyond imaginable for a club annually targeting silverware and aiming to bring in more revenue. To replace those positions in the current market is hundreds of millions. That's not even mentioning replacing them because you can't. They're the best in their positions in the world and only by their own doing. Why wasn't trent offered a new contract 2 years ago? Very questionable.
